Free practice test · real IRCC format

Canadian citizenship practice test: 20 questions, 45 minutes, 15 to pass.

This is the format IRCC uses today: 20 multiple-choice or true-or-false questions, in English or French, with 45 minutes on the clock and 15 correct answers needed to pass. CitizenReady mock tests match that format exactly — and every attempt brings fresh, unseen questions from all 10 topic areas.

What makes this practice test different

Fresh every time

Unseen questions first

Each mock test draws questions you have not seen yet, balanced across every chapter by a fixed blueprint. You only see repeats after you have worked through the bank — so a second mock test is a new test, not a memory test.

Every topic, every time

All 10 areas in all 20 questions

Rights, who we are, history, modern Canada, government, elections, justice, symbols, economy, and regions — every mock test covers them all, in the same proportions, so no topic can hide.

Real conditions

Timer, palette, flag for review

A 45-minute countdown, a question palette, flagging, and review-before-submit — the same habits you need on test day. A 30-minute strict timer is available for extra pressure.

Learn from every miss

Explanations + review deck

After you submit, every question gets an explanation tied to its guide chapter, plus a score by chapter. Missed questions go into a review deck until you answer them correctly twice.

How to use it

1. Read a chapter. 2. Take its 10-question quiz. 3. When every chapter feels familiar, take a mock test under timed conditions. 4. Repeat until you score 16 or better on three mock tests in a row and every chapter is at 70% or better. That is CitizenReady's readiness standard — stricter than the real pass mark, on purpose.

Practice questions are original questions written from Discover Canada. They are not real IRCC test questions, which are not published. No practice app can guarantee a pass; readiness here is earned through consistent strong scores.
